Default font in the Visual Editor has changed to sans-serif

[mfields]

The default font for the visual editor in trunk has recently changed from a Georgia stack to sans-serif. I believe this is a regression and I was able to track it down to the following changeset [19982]

This may be hard to see on a stock install of trunk running Twenty Eleven. The reason for this is that Twenty Eleven provides a custom stylesheet for the Visual Editor. To see what I am talking about, you will need to install a theme that has no editor stylesheet.

Here is what text in the Visual Editor looks like in 3.3.1

Here is what test looks like in the latest trunk:

Removing the font styles from the body element in wp_theme/content.css seems to do the trick. Not sure if this is the best approach. Patch to follow.

Revert change to the default font in the visual editor, see #20184

This bit was a left-over from testing a better default font that would work well in all languages when the theme doesn't overwrite the fonts through editor-style.css. Opened #20186 for that.
